Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are unique carbon nanomaterials with a hollow tubular structure formed from rolled graphene sheets, which can be classified into single-walled CNTs (SWCNTs) and multi-walled CNTs (MWCNTs). Since their discovery, CNTs have attracted significant attention owing to their remarkable physical, chemical, and electronic properties. These unique characteristics, along with those of CNT-based composites, have enabled their integration into a vast range of technological fields, including electronics, biomedicine, energy storage and conversion, chemical processing, environmental remediation, and catalysis.
This Special Issue aims to highlight the latest advances in CNT research, with a particular focus on synthesis methods, characterization approaches, and technological applications of SWCNTs, MWCNTs, and hybrid CNT systems. For this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome for submission.
Dr. Olívia Salomé G. P. Soares

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Nanomaterials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
